Definitions
- the present invention is concerned with spread products, in particular with fat- continuous spread products of low fat content, and processes for their preparation.
- a substance that has widely been applied as a fat extender is water. This use of water has, for example, led to the introduction of so-called halvarines. If relatively high levels of water are used, often thickening agents and/or gelling agents are used for avoiding adverse effects of the high water level.
- EP-A-298 561 (Unilever) describes the preparation of edible plastic dispersions not having a continuous fat phase, said composition including at least two gelling agents forming two gel-forming compositions.
- EP-A-355 908 (Unilever) relates to thermoreversible microgels of polysaccharides being substantially less rigid than a gel of the same composition formed under quiescent conditions.
- EP-A-432 835 (Unilever) relates to chemically set gels prepared under shear, said gels being substantially less rigid than the same composition prepared under quiescent conditions.
- EP-A-441 495 (Pfizer) relates to an emulsion type low calorie fat substitute comprising an aqueous phase and a fat phase, wherein the interaction between the two phases results in a pourable product.
- Research Disclosure Vol.352, nr 092 (Anonymous) discloses low fat spreads containing 0.5- 2.0% of either alginate or pectin in the water phase.
- EP-A-387 940 discloses fat continuous spreads containing gelatin, hydrolysed starch and optionally pectin.
- JP 04 278 049 (Taiyou Yushi KK) discloses spreads with gelatin, xanthan gum and 8 to 47 % polysaccharide e.g. poltdextrose.
- EP-A-398 411 (Unilever N.V.) describes the production of fat-continuous spreads with high levels of gelatin and low or minor amounts of a second gelling agent by pregelation followed by phase-inversion.
- starch for example in the form of hydrolysed starch.
- starch is added, for example in the form of hydrolysed starch.
- the disadvantage of using starch is that it often gives rise to a starchy taste or grainy appearance of the product.

- any polysaccharide capable of forming a (weak) gel may be used.
- the gel may either be a thermoreversible gel or a chemically set gel.
- Suitable gelling polysaccharides for forming a thermoreversible gel are for example agar, alginate, pectin or a mixture thereof.
- the gelling polysaccharide is pectin, especially a pectine which gels in the presence of alkaline earth ions more in particular calcium ion.
- pectin as used herein also includes esterified pectins with 5-50% of the hydroxyl groups esterified, furthermore amidated and methoxylated pectins
- compositions of the invention may comprise in addition to the above mentioned gelatin and gelling polysaccarides minor amounts of other gelling or thickening agents.
- examples of such materials are gellan, denatured whey protein, denatured bovine serum protein, egg white, denatured vegetable storage protein and microcrystalline cellulose.

- the spread is substantially free from these ingredients.
- preferred compositions according to the invention are substantially free from native or modified starch and contain 0 to 2 wt%, more preferably less than 0.5 wt% starch.
- compositions of the invention comprise from 10 to 60 wt% of fat, more preferred the level of fat is more than 15 wt% and less than 45%, especially 15- 38 wt%.
- oil and fat are used interchangeably. They are meant to include triglycerides of natural or synthetic origin such as soya bean oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, fish oil, rapeseed oil, coconut oil, and hydrogenated, fractionated and/or interesterified triglyceride mixtures as well as edible substances that are physically similar to triglycerides such as waxes, e.g. jojoba oil and. poly fatty acid esters of mono- or di-saccharides, and that can be used as replacement for, or in admixture with triglycerides.
- triglycerides of natural or synthetic origin such as soya bean oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, fish oil, rapeseed oil, coconut oil, and hydrogenated, fractionated and/or interesterified triglyceride mixtures as well as edible substances that are physically similar to triglycerides such as waxes, e.g. jojoba oil and. poly fatty acid esters of mono- or di-sacchari
- spreads of the invention are plastic in the sense that they can be spread onto bread without tearing the bread.
- plastic spreads will have a stress strain relation with a maximum stress occurring at strain of 0.001-0.5, more preferred 0.01 to 0.3, the maximum stress at this strain being 0.01-100 kPa, more preferred 0.01 to 60 kPa and with a ratio of plastic stress and the maximum stress of 0.1 to 1.
- a suitable method for determining these values is given in EP 298 561.
- spreads of the invention may comprise a number of optional ingredients such as flavouring, salt, preservatives, acidifiers, vitamins, colouring materials etc.
- the level of salt is from 0- 4 wt%, more preferred 0.1 to 3 wt%, most preferred 0.2 to 2 wt%.

- the protein is partially a vegetable protein, especially soy bean protein.
- suitable weight ratios of animal protein to vegetable protein may for example be from 10 : 1 to 1 : 10.
- the spread may further contain small particles such as herbs and vegetables.
- the total level thereof will generally be less than 10 wt%.
- Spreads of the invention will generally comprise fairly high levels of water, say from 30 to 88 wt% of the composition, more preferred 40 to 80 wt%, most preferred 50 to 70 wt%. Water may be incorporated as such, or as part of the other ingredients such as milk etc.
- Spreads of the invention are fat-continuous in the sense that they comprise a continuous fat phase. Fat-continuous spreads can readily be distinguished from water-continuous spreads by virtue of conductivity measurements.
